You should be extremely careful whilst handling them physically. The motherboard is ultimately what your RAM is mating up to so the compatibility specs need to match that MoBo.Īlso, i see this all the time, users think they can just handle those RAM sticks like playing cards, and the truth is, NO, you shouldn't. that is what came back when i looked it up. Then on top of that, there is your motherboard.looks like an i-5 - 650 sandy bridge CPU seated on an Acer proprietary MoBo.
there may be memory settings in there that you need to tweak, that is a little bit of a climb, but your PC is worth it to you.
But wait there is more.you can access your BIOS before your PC ever makes it to a boot. I would uninstall those two failing add-on RAM sticks, read your speccy info, and try again with RAM sticks that might just be different and compatible Those two apps will tell you what you have already in your system that is functioning successfully. The apps most common that users employ are S I W and speccy. Anyway, you desktop data sheet isn't helping you much with your basic ram specs and your kingston spec sheet is a bit overwhelming when all you really need are just those few details. you know, the basic stuff that the end user would need to go shopping. like DDR and pcxxxx and xxx MHz and dual channel, and EPP. I just use S I W as a system information app, and it provides RAM info that is quite simple. Your kingston memory spec sheet is wonderful and stimulating, but that isn't getting that RAM working. Ovbiously there is a memory parity error for the boot process to be interrupted with a blue screen of PC social disease.
